I bid you welcome to Camelot! CAMELOT! ...it's just a model

Example

Well, I wanted to do this:

Ingredients needed for the most expensive potions
Ingredients GIANT'S TOE (+) Blue Mountain Flower (+a) Blue Butterfly Wing 712 (+b) Imp Stool 415 (+) Bear Claws (+a) Hanging Moss 712 (+b) Creep Cluster 699 (+c) Hawk Beak 589 (+d) Wisp Wrappings 589 (+d) Histcarp 549 (+e) Large Antlers 549 (+f) Silverside Perch 549

To put those prices in one neat column with tab... but I think I'll use the spacebar — Unsigned comment by AudreyGally (talk • contribs) on 6 November 2012

I would do it like this:

Ingredients needed for the most expensive potions
Ingredients		Price
Giant's Toe + Blue Mountain Flower	+ Blue Butterfly Wing	712

Ingredients

Hey there Audrey. I realised that you have been editing a lot of the ingredient articles. On one part, I agree with you that the ordering of the headings you did are okay as it complies with our style guide, and good job so far! On the other hand, I do not understand why you changed the headings from "Plants"/"Creatures" to "Sources", as the former is more specific than the latter. Furthermore, other game namespaces such as Oblivion and Shivering uses "Plants" or "Creatures". These should be changed back to what they were before, as it is more specific, and also to be consistent throughout the site. ~ Psylocke 01:58, 8 November 2012 (GMT)

Thank you, Psylocke! I do apologize for changing the headings. I asked in the chat about it, and I understood there should be no problem to change them all to "Sources". But of course, I'll change them back as soon as posible! And I'm very sorry for causing trouble. Audrey Gally ^talk 02:15, 8 November 2012 (GMT)

Just a minor question... some of the ingredients already had "Sources" writen down, instead of "Creature" or "Plant" (like the Abecean Logfin). Should I change those too, so they can be consistent? As long as the ingredient comes from a creature/plant, of course. If it's only sold by merchants or already harvested samples, then I'll leave the "Sources" name. What do you think? Audrey Gally ^talk 02:28, 8 November 2012 (GMT)

Yeap, the longfins, carps and various insects for example, are considered passive creatures, so changing the heading to "Creature" should be the correct thing to do. If any ingredients do not fall within the two categories—as you have pointed out with the merchants—leaving the heading as "Sources" should be fine. ~ Psylocke 02:35, 8 November 2012 (GMT)

Psylocke, I asked for consensus in the CP because I received different inputs about this subject (the other two from experienced editors, like you). Would you be so kind to express your point of view there too? Since you have edited the ingredients pages too, I understand you have a helpful point of view about this too. So, just for the moment, I won't change the names until this subject is cleared (I'll just make some other different minor edits, for consistence). When the consensus has been reached, I'll gladly change the subjects accordingly, I'm ready to help! :D Audrey Gally ^talk 18:27, 8 November 2012 (GMT)
